I need to forecast numbers in a spreadsheet....increasing for 3 years and
also decreasing numbers for 3 years, for example a 3% increase for the next
3 years and a -5% decrease for the next three years. How do I do this?
Please be specific, I do not know much about excell and I have several
columns to do.

Please see responses to your other thread, "Increasing and decreasing
numbers by 5%...".

Generally, it is imprudent to post the same or similar messages multiple
times (or in multiple threads). But in this case, your two postings were
almost 2 hours apart. So perhaps you thought the first posting was lost
when it did not appear on your news server after waiting a reasonable amount
of time.
